RELATED APPLICATION

The application claims the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 201310447051.4, filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of the P.R.C on Sep. 26, 2013 and entitled “method and device for storing video images”, the entire disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to video processing technologies, and more particularly, to a method and device for storing video images.

BACKGROUND

Accompanying with people's increasing attention to safety, more and more places have installed monitoring equipment (such as camera), meanwhile monitoring system gradually develops towards high definition (HD). Correspondingly, storage space occupied by monitoring video is greater, and costs on hard disk are higher.

However, in practical applications, what is captured by a monitoring device in most of the time throughout the day is invalid data, without occurrence of a focused-on target. Thus, there is an urgent problem to be solved about how to effectively reduce such invalid data, so as to save storage space and costs.

Regarding the foregoing problem, the following processing modes are generally adopted in the prior art. The motion detecting or intelligent analysis technologies may be employed, to analyze whether a focused-on target exists in a video, and output a determination result about “yes” or “no”. When the determination result is “yes”, encode and record the video; otherwise, encoding and recording are not executed.

However, some problems may occur when applying the foregoing modes in practical applications, for example, no matter employing the motion detecting or intelligent analysis technologies, as long as “yes” or “no” is used in the judgment, the probability of misjudgment and missing judgment may exist under technical conditions. When the misjudgment occurs, additional storage space may be consumed. When the missing judgment occurs, key data may be lost. Subsequently, adaptive capability and availability of system may be lowered.

SUMMARY

In view of above, the present disclosure provides a method and device for storing video image, so as to improve adaptive capability and availability of a system.

To achieve the foregoing objectives, the technical solutions of the present disclosure are implemented as follows.

A method for storing a video image, including:

or each frame of image collected, generating a confidence value after passing M frames of image each time, wherein M is a positive integer;

after passing N frames of image each time, determining a target encoding frame rate based on the confidence value latest generated, encoding and recording the N frames of image based on the target encoding frame rate determined, wherein N is a positive integer.

A device for storing a video image, including a first processing module and a second processing module, wherein

for each frame of image collected, the first processing module is to generate a confidence value after passing M frames of image each time, and transmitting the confidence value to the second processing module, wherein M is a positive integer; and

after passing N frames of image each time, the second processing module is to determine a target encoding frame rate based on the confidence value latest generated, encoding and recording the N frames of image based on the determined target encoding frame rate, wherein N is a positive integer.

Thus, it can be seen that by adopting the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the target encoding frame rate may be continuously adjusted based on confidence value. And then, encoding and recording may be executed, based on the adjusted target encoding frame rate, so as to avoid influence brought by misjudgment and missing judgment in the prior art to the largest extent, and improve adaptive capability and availability of system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS

Regarding the problems in the prior art, the present disclosure provides a technical solution for storing a video image.

To make the technical solutions of the present disclosure more clear, detailed descriptions about the technical solutions in the present disclosure are further provided in the following, accompanying with attached figures and examples.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for storing a video image, in accordance with an example of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the method may include the following blocks 11-12.

In block 11, for each frame of image collected, generate a confidence value after passing M frames of image each time, in which M is a positive integer.

The confidence value is a rational number located in [T_(min),T_(max)]. Generally, T_(min) is greater than or equal to 0. Greater confidence value denotes greater probability for a focused-on target exists in an image.

For example, when the value of T_(min) is 0, it denotes that a focused-on target does not exist in an image. When the value of T_(max) is 100, it denotes that a focused-on target exists in an image. Different values in 0˜100 denote different possibilities for a focused-on target exists in an image.

In practical applications, a confidence value may be generated for each frame of image, that is, a confidence value may be generated after passing every frame of image. Alternatively, a confidence value may also be generated after passing multiple frames of image each time. For example, when original image frame rate is 25 frames per second, a confidence value may be generated after passing 25 frames of image each time.

The confidence value may be generated by adopting motion detecting or intelligent analysis technologies.

The motion detecting technologies are generally applied to a fixed scene, and may obtain relevant information, such as area moved in a picture, moving range, and so on, by analyzing two adjacent frames of image, or analyzing multiple frames of image.

The intelligent analysis technologies may analyze suspicious event behavior in a picture, and so on, by performing a background modeling, a target segmentation, a trajectory tracking to a scene image.

In block 12, after passing N frames of image each time, determine a target encoding frame rate based on a confidence value latest generated, encode and record the N frames of image based on the target encoding frame rate determined, in which N is a positive integer.

Specific implementation modes of block 12 may be different, based on different values of N, which will be respectively described in the following. In addition, values of N and M may be the same, or may be different.

When N=1, for each frame of image, respectively determine whether it is necessary to encode the frame of image. When determining that it is necessary to encode the frame of image, encode and record the frame of image.

Specifically speaking, the following processes may be respectively performed to each frame of image.

1) Determine the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value latest generated, based on a mapping relationship curve between confidence value and target encoding frame rate.

The mapping relationship curve is a monotonic non-declined curve.

The target encoding frame rate is a rational number located in [F_(min), F_(max)], in which F_(min)>0.

When the confidence value is T_(min), the corresponding target encoding frame rate is F_(min). When the confidence value is T_(max), the corresponding target encoding frame rate is F_(max).

2) Map the determined target encoding frame rate to an extraction factor X, in which X is a positive integer.

For example, the original image frame rate is 25 frames per second, the target encoding frame rate is 7 frames per second, and then an encoding frame ratio is 7/25, which is between ⅓ and ¼. Subsequently, 7 frames of image may be relatively evenly extracted from the 25 frames of image, so as to be encoded and recorded. Correspondingly, 3 and 4 may be taken as the extraction factor.

3) Determine frame number K of image un-encoded between the latest encoding and the frame of image, and determine whether K+1>=X. When determining that K+1>=X, encode and record the frame of image; otherwise, encoding and recording are not performed to the frame of image.

That is, for the frame of image, when K+1>=X, encode and record the frame of image, and reset K. When K+1<X, encoding and recording are not performed to the frame of image, and add 1 to the value of K, that is, K++.

When N>1, the following processes may be respectively performed to every N frames of image.

1) Determine the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value latest generated, based on the mapping relationship curve between confidence value and target encoding frame rate.

2) Encode and record the N frames of image, based on the determined target encoding frame rate.

For example, the original image frame rate is 25 frames per second, N=25, the target encoding frame rate is 12.5 frames per second, and then, encode and record each frame of image extracted, based on a mode for extracting a frame every other frame.

When N=1, the foregoing processing mode may be referred to as a first processing mode. When N>1, the processing mode may be referred to as a second processing mode. Essentially, when determining the foregoing two values for each frame of image by using the second processing mode, the first processing mode may be achieved.

In addition, the technical solutions of the present disclosure also put forward the following. Determine actual bit stream R and expected bit stream S, every time a predetermined condition is met. Determine whether it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve based on R and S. When determining that it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve based on R and S, adjust the mapping relationship curve.

The abovementioned adjusting may include as follows. When S>R, increase the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max). When S<R, decrease the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max).

In practical applications, a value obtained after dividing consumed storage capacity by storage time may be calculated, and a calculation result may be taken as R. For example, the consumed storage capacity in storage space is xGB, in which videos of y days are stored, and then the value of x/y may be taken as R. R may reflect actual consumption rate of storage statistically.

A result obtained after dividing un-consumed storage capacity by expected storage time may also be calculated, and the calculation result may be taken as S. For example, the remaining (e.g., not-consumed) storage capacity in storage space is aGB, expected storage time is b days, and then, the value of a/b may be taken as S. S may reflect consumption rate of storage expecting to be achieved. The expected storage time may be set manually, and specific value of the expected storage time may be determined based on actual requirements.

The unit of foregoing storage time is day, which may be also hour, second, and so on. In addition, other modes occurred to persons having ordinary skill in the art may also be used to determined R and S, which are not limited to the foregoing modes.

Every time a predetermined condition is met, e.g., after scheduled time, or extra 10% of storage capacity is consumed each time, values of R and S may be determined once again. Alternatively, expect for the first time, R may be determined subsequently, and S may be calculated by using R. Correspondingly, every time after determining R and S, whether it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve may be further determined. When determining that it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve, adjust the mapping relationship curve; otherwise, not adjust the mapping relationship curve.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a mapping relationship between confidence value (T) and target encoding frame rate (F), in accordance with an example of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, suppose the original image frame rate is 25 frames per second, and a user expects to encode and record with such frame rate, when a focused-on target exists. And then, 25 may be taken as F_(max). Meanwhile, suppose a minimum frame rate acceptable to a user is 5 frames per second, 5 may be taken as F_(min). When S=R, the mapping relationship curve may be maintained without change. When S>R, it denotes that consumption of storage space is lower than expectation. To store more data, the mapping relationship curve may be moved towards upper right. That is, increase the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max). On the contrary, when S<R, it denotes that consumption of storage space is greater than the expectation. To achieve the expected storage time, the mapping relationship curve may be moved towards lower left. That is, decrease the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max).

In different conditions, such as S=R, S>R, S<R, specific values of the target encoding frame rate respectively corresponding to different confidence values may be determined based on actual requirements. FIG. 2 may denote a change trend.

In addition, in the technical solutions of the present disclosure, when encoding an image, various standard encoding modes may be employed, such as H.264/advanced video coding (AVC), Moving Picture Experts Group 4 (MPEG4), High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). Alternatively, private compression algorithms may also be employed. The bit stream obtained after encoding may be stored into the storage space.

Based on the foregoing descriptions, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating structure of a device for storing a video image, in accordance with an example of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, the device may include a first processing module 31 and a second processing module 32.

For each frame of image collected, the first processing module 31 is to generate a confidence value after passing M frames of image each time, and transmit the confidence value to the second processing module 32. M is a positive integer.

After passing N frames of image each time, the second processing module 32 may determine a target encoding frame rate based on the confidence value latest generated, encode and record the N frames of image based on the target encoding frame rate determined. N is a positive integer.

Specifically, the second processing module 32 may include a first processing unit 321 and a second processing unit 322.

When N=1, the first processing unit 321 is to execute the following processes for each frame of image. Determine the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value latest generated, based on the mapping relationship curve between confidence value and target encoding frame rate. Map the determined target encoding frame rate to an extraction factor X, in which X is a positive integer. Determine frame number K of image un-encoded between latest encoding and the frame of image, and determine whether K+1>=X. When determining that K+1>=X, the first processing unit 321 may inform the second processing unit 322 to execute functions of the second processing unit 322. The second processing unit 322 is to encode and record the frame of image.

Alternatively, when N>1, for every N frames of image, the first processing unit 321 may respectively execute the following processes. Determine the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value latest generated, based on the mapping relationship curve between confidence value and target encoding frame rate. Transmit the determined target encoding frame rate to the second processing unit 322. The second processing unit 322 may encode and record the N frames of image, based on the target encoding frame rate determined.

Specifically, the mapping relationship curve is a monotonic non-declined curve.

The confidence value is a rational number located in [T_(min), T_(max)]. A greater confidence value denotes a greater probability for a focused-on target exists in an image.

The target encoding frame rate is a rational number located in [F_(min), F_(max)]. F_(min)>0.

When the confidence value is T_(min), the corresponding target encoding frame rate is F_(min). When the confidence value is T_(max), the corresponding target encoding frame rate is F_(max).

In addition, the second processing unit 322 is further to determine actual bit stream R and expected bit stream S, every time a predetermined condition is met, and transmit R and S to the first processing unit 321.

Correspondingly, the first processing unit 321 is further to determine whether it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve, based on R and S. When determining it is necessary to adjust the mapping relationship curve based on R and S, adjust the mapping relationship curve. The adjusting may include as follows. When S>R, increase the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max). When S<R, decrease the target encoding frame rate corresponding to the confidence value between T_(min) and T_(max).

R=consumed storage capacity/stored time. S=un-consumed storage capacity/expected storage time.

The specific work process of the device illustrated in FIG. 3 may refer to corresponding descriptions in the foregoing method examples, which are not repeated here.

In a word, by adopting the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the target encoding frame rate may be continuously adjusted based on the confidence value. Encoding and recording may be executed based on the adjusted target encoding frame rate, so as to avoid the influence brought by misjudgment and missing judgment in the prior art to the largest extent, and improve adaptive capability and availability of system. A self-adaptive adjustment may be employed by the mapping between confidence value and target encoding frame rate, so as to enable storable recording time in storage space to be controllable. In addition, by adopting the technical solutions of the present disclosure, for a scene where no focused-on target exists, a relatively lower frame rate may be used to encode and record. Thus, the effects of fast forward may be achieved by playback, so as to improve efficiency when querying for playback video.
